Try to add line like
   addmenu Run "ResEdit" '`files -r -f -s -t APPL -c RSED "{Utils}"`'
or
   alias resed '`files -r -f -s -t APPL -c RSED "{Utils}"`'
to your UserStartup (Utils is the path to your folder with ResEdit).

It locates resedit when you issue the command; if you modify it
a litte it will instead locate resedit when mpw starts up. It is
a matter of taste (i.e. if you like to wait for mpw or resedit
to start).
